Baba Ali and the Clockwork Djinn: A Steampunk Faerie Tale by Danielle Ackley-McPhail and Day Al-Mohamed – Review by Sara Oxton

Baba Ali and the Clockwork Djinn: A Steampunk Faerie Tale by Danielle Ackley-McPhail
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Baba Ali and the Clock Work Djinn by Danielle Ackley-McPhail & Day Al-Mohamed a refreshing four-star read. This was my first read by these co-authors and I was so surprised by their descriptive powers, you can mentally picture the scenes so well. Considering this covers so many genres all wrapped into one story it could get so confusing but the authors do a great job of keeping the pace and plot so you don’t get lost it was very well done. It did start a little slow, but it picked up so well that I really enjoyed it. I also really enjoyed the way the authors have of revealing surprising elements was really well done, they don’t just drop the mike, they build to it and then boom major drop. If you like a fantasy re-telling with steampunk elements then pick this up.
